NOOOO.
If you have, say linux-image-2.6.15-1-686-smp, the headers package that
MATCHES YOUR RUNNING KERNEL is:
linux-headers-2.6.15-1-686-smp
This will install that and a few other packages it depends on as well,
like:
linux-headers-2.6.15-1
kernel-build-<something>
package-foo
bar-package
(examples those are, yes!)
Once you have the proper linux-headers in place, most if not all things
that need to compile against the headers will do so without problems.
One thing you need to remove though, the linux-source-2.6.15 directory
and the "linux" symbolic link to that linux-source-2.6.15, otherwise,
you will get compilation errors.
